Reunifying my brain -

Hey fellow soldiers,
I hope you all are holding the line and are making progress towards the goal. A short introduction of myself: My name is Max, I am 16 years old, from Italy and my story with nofap started two months ago when I began with dating and my testosterone skyrocketed because of progress in the gym and other factors.

The consequence was that I got addicted to porn and I currently fap daily. The last two months inflicted a lot of casualties to my life: my grades in school plummeted, my progress on my dev bootcamp I currently attend bogged down and I socially isolated myself more and more. I have already realized my bad health condition in mid october and I often think of porn addiction as some sort of schizophrenia, because the mid brain (part of the brain which wants the fast dopamine and consequently destroys my life) and the prefrontal cortex are fighting for the control over my brain. (Therefore I use also a lot of military terms to describe my battle against addiction, I am a big fan of history and especially german imperialism (I am no nazi)). I often think of nofap as the only way to transform the state (my brain) from a puppet state wrecked by civil war to a strong unified empire which is able to rule the world.

I know that once I achieved inner unity, I can take on every enemy. I have already conquered many problems of myself: I was addicted to social media for 3 years until I finally defeated it in early august by making an complete detox of IG, etc. I also solved my self doubt issues, I had strong self doubts for years. I started making money of websites and crypto two years ago and made 5k in the last months. I know that's nothing big but it was still a major success in my previous campaigns. As I already mentioned, I also started with the gym in early august and previous to that I trained at home and in the home gym of a friend of mine for about one and a half years and was able to build around 10 - 12 kilograms of muscle mass. I weighed around 58 kilograms in the beginning of 2021 and now I weigh around 70 kilograms.

I often think of nofap as the last major obstacle to achieving this sort of iron discipline everyone in the personal development community is talking about. Let's make it happen together brothers. We need to win the war of our lives.
